Square Enix has been so focused on Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XII, Final Fantaxy XIV: A Realm Reborn, and the HD remake of Final Fantasy X lately that it’s almost as if the publisher wasn’t quite prepared for next-generation consoles. In addition to Final Fantasy XV, however, there is one next-generation game that Square Enix actually has a release date for.

The reboot of the Thief games is coming on February 25, around the same time the PlayStation 4 is launching in Japan. The game will feature a whole new story starring the thief Garrett and will offer players (for better or worse) updated stealth-action mechanics. Thief is coming from Eidos Montreal, the same studio that created Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
